HOW IT HAPPENED,
The circumstances Attending the Loss of the Schooner Harry A. Barry of This Port.

The circumstances Atten ding the Loss
 of the Schooner Harry A. Barry of
 This Port.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 For the information of all concerned and in justice to Captain c. w. Chatfeld, late master of the schooner Harry A. Barry, was stranded on the rock-bound coast of Point Judith on the morning of the 20th inst, I feel it my duty after having thoroughly investigated to state the facts.
 The immediate cause of the disaster is due to gross error on the part of the first off cer, James Manson. which he himself freely and openly acknowledges. MT. Manson's
 watch was called to relieve the captain at
 twelve midnight, when he (Manson) took con-
 mand of the deck, the captain going below
 until 4 a. m. or eight bells. Previous to
 leaving the deck the captain gave MT. Man
 son some minor instructions in reference to
 course, etc. The vessel had at this time just
 passed through the passage known as the
 Race, east of New London. The wind was
 S.W., moderate and free, course about E. s.
 E. and partially clear weather. MT. Manson
 being perfectly familiar with the coast,
 tides and currents for which this par
 ticular locality is noted, and being
 thorough navigator, having masters cer- tiicate, and having been in, the employ of the
 Barry four years as first officer, Captain Chatfeld retired to his cabin for a little rest, feeling perfectly easy, knowing he would be called during the watch as usual should any thing need his presence on deck. At 8. m. | the watch was called. Captain Chatfeld as he came up the eompanionway saw at a glance that the vessel was too far in shore and immediately rushed to the wheel to | change the vessels course, but she was too l near the bottom and would not answer her l helm. and was swept in the breakers and on | to the rocks where she now lies 8 hopeless l wreck.
 | MT. Manson in his statement says he
 was deceived in calculating his dis tance from the land, being in full | view of the lighthouse on the | Point and so sure of his position that he did | not deem it necessary to take soundines, as | is invariably the custom when near the land | He seems to be at loss to account for his position, but the supposition is that he did not make allowance for the tide and leeway l setting in shore.
 l Captain Chatfield has been in the present | employ several years and is one of the oldest and most successful captains. He took | command of the Barry in the year 1881 when ! she was built; has made several successful
 voyages with her to the Gulf of Mexico, but | has principally been confined to the coal l trade.
 This statement is the result of my own in- vestigation as agent of the vessel, Captain Chatfield not apparently having any disposi- ton to throw the blame on the first officer, but on the contrary he had command of the vessel and is responsible.

Fraternal Visit or Members Supper
 at she SeIden HOuse-Kntertainme
 at Knights of Columbus Hall.
 The New Haven Knights of Columbus handsomely entertained yesterday visiting brethren from New London, Norwich, Bran ford, Waterbury and Meriden The occasion was the initiation of members into the order. Frank Craig and Nicholas Coffee took the third degree. As the work of the New Haven Knights is finely conducted, the mem bers of other councils were invited to be present and witness the excellent work of the order, which was the first exercise with the new paraphernalia. The Knights from New London took an especial interest in the work, as they have recently furnished a new hall elegantly in which the new par aphernalia will probably soon be used.
 After the ceremonies at the hall the New Haven Knights invited the visiting breth. ren to supper, which was furnished at the Selden House by the proprietor, MT. T. M. Landlord Kennas best. The long table was abundantIy set with tempting viands and ornamented with pyra- mids of fruit and fancy cakes. After the supper the district deputy Thomas Campbell, who presided at the table, called on his brothers Of the order TOT snort speeches. Mr. Daniel Colwell, the general secretary of the councils of this State, made merry speech, alluding to some sport which the members have had during several visits of different councils. MT. Colwell's speech, which was well received, was followed by
 similar remarks from others, among whom were: NJ. McNamara, William T. May and
 John Stanners, of New London; Thomas P.
 Carney and J. Quinlan, of Branford; Henry T. Downs, of Meriden; John R. Me Namara, of Norwich; P. H. Cosgrove, M. F. Walker and M. T. Lynch, of this city. A vote of thanks was then extended to Landlord Kenna and the ladies of the Selden House, who assisted at the ta- ble. After singing "Auld Lang Syne" the members adjourned to their hall in Woods building on Church street, where an enter tafnmenE was furnished, which consisted of songs, speeches, or recitations by members who responded as they were called uron. P. H. Cosgrove gave touching recitation en- titled the fsDeath of Kate Malony.".
 Edward Keayeney and Mir. Slaterly fur nished their part for the edifcation of those present when John P. Carney, who was call ed for, responded with a very amusing speech which was loudly applauded. The evening was much enjoyed socially.

An Elegant Tribute.

Colonel E. F. Durand, the State street grocer, was recently presented by the past supreme representative of the Knights of Pythias of Alabama with an elegant solid gold emblematic badge one and one-half inches wide and three and one-half inches long. The pin is half oval surrounded by very elaborate scroll work and the name E. F. Durand in raised letters in the center. The pendant is three triangles enameled with the colors of the K. of P. order with gold lily in each angle and the gold letters F.C.B. in the center. Resting on these triangles is 8 circle with the inscription "Comstock divi- sion No. 2, U. R., K. F., New Haven, Conn.," Within the circle is a silver calla lily with leaves of gold and encireling the whole is wreath of myrtle very artistically finished in gold and silver. On the top of the pendant is Sir Knights helmet and on the bottom the guard and grip of the sword of the rank. The badge is one of rare beauty and shows workmanship of the highest order. Colonel Durand is we'll known in business circles an honorable, energetic gentleman and mer- chant. He has been a very active worker in the K of P. order and has done much if not more than any other member to bring about it's present prosperity in this locality. His recent selection as the commanding off cer of the Uniform rank in this State and the presentation of this elegant badge attest the popularity and esteem in which he is held by his brother Sir Knights.
